The Lady Leopards broke the school record for consecutive wins Monday night at Louisville Leopards Stadium after defeating the Lake Center Christian Tigers 4-1. The win is their sixth straight as they move to 7-1 overall. Rachel Baughman scored a pair of goals to lead the Leps and Lizzy Mont & Sarah Jaroszyk also added goals.

Louisville dominated the game out-shooting Lake Center Christian 37-2 and leading in corner kicks 5-0. The Tigers stayed in the game via the play of goalie Hofer who had 21 saves and kept the game 1-nil until the 20:10 mark of the second half.

That’s when Baughman added her first goal in the top left-center of the net. Lizz Stefanik sent a pass that was headed by Baughman and angled off Halie Barton back to Baughman. She then dribbled to the right around a defender and made it 2-nil.

Lake Center Christian cut the lead in half at the 14:08 mark, but Louisville answered with two more goals. Stefanik launched a deep shot that bounced off the goalie Hofer. There for the rebound was Jaroszyk who tapped it with her left foot into the goal. The final goal came when Sami Keefe stole a pass and centered the ball to Baughman who kicked it into the far left side of the net to make it 4-1 Leopards.

Baughman also had an assist earlier in the game when her and Mont executed a perfect give and go play. Mont received Baughman’s pass in the goal box and flushed it home for the score. Louisville has outscored their opponents 31-14 here at the midway mark of the season.

For Coach Janine Hepler it was win number 21 of her coaching career putting her alone in second on the all-time list. Only Sarah Morris (32-29-9) has a more wins than Hepler’s 21-18-3 mark. To celebrate the win the Lady Leps passed through The Jungle student section tunnel that had been avid in cheering Louisville to victory all game long.
